    I was refering to the post that said that college was a better skating
game, which I used the following player as a retort, with out realizing that
half of those guys probably skated a lot on the larger surface. I used these
players as an example. I could have also used the Great one, Stevie Y, Chris
Drury (one of my personal favorites) Paul Karia... In fact last nights NHL
game showed a great display of skating abilities of most players on both
teams. Anyone notice that Dallas really doesn't have any so called goons and
Robbie Ray sat in the press box. I think Playoff hockey is really even
better than the regular season. Last night game just highlights that.
